ENTRY / EXIT REQUIREMENTS FOR U.S. CITIZENS: Brazil requires
U.S. citizens to carry a valid U.S. passport and visa when traveling to Brazil
for any purpose. You must obtain your Brazilian visa in advance from the
Brazilian Embassy or consulate nearest to your place of residence in the United
States. There are no “airport visas” and immigration authorities will refuse
entry into Brazil to anyone not possessing a valid visa. The U.S.
government cannot assist you if you arrive in Brazil without proper
documentation.
